Gone are the days that one needs to either pay for expensive software packages... or be a little pirate. With open source packages like GIMP, Inkscape and Blender, just about everyone can now join in. || | ||{{attachment:AlanM.png}} ||Alan McKinnon ||[[mailto:alan@prepaidmeters.com|Alan McKinnon]] ||Building a Business using Open Source Software ||The pitfalls and the shining stars || |

|| {{attachment:Tshepo.jpg}} ||Tshepo Moabi ||https://plus.google.com/+TshepoMoabi ||Vision of the end user ||A talk about computing from the perspective of someone who cares for nothing, except the experienced derived from using a desktop computer. He is not a geek or a developer, he's just a regular end user... nothing more. Tshepo Moabi has become tired of the inefficiencies of the many systems that exist. He wants a system that makes it very quick and easy for him to access anything from his computer. A system that exists solely to make computing easier, either for someone new to the world of clicking and typing or for someone who has enjoyed a long, prosperous journey through the many user interfaces that exist. Tshepo has spent endless time downloading and customizing, and many more hours, just to save a few microseconds of navigation while using the desktop computer. The self proclaimed 'regular end user', talks about his vision for the future. This is a vision of the most efficient OS in the world, it also is the easiest UI to learn. || | |

Be sensible, use Ansible |
In this talk, I will give a quick overview of Ansible (http://docs.ansible.com), a radically simple open source configuration management tool with almost no learning curve. Via playbooks, Ansible allows you to easily automate the configuration of Linux (and Windows) hosts, from 1 to thousands of nodes. I will briefly touch on the core Ansible concepts and talk about / demo things you can do with it. |

OpenSUSE Build Service |
The Open Build Service (OBS) is a generic system to build and distribute packages from sources in an automatic, consistent and reproducible way. It makes it possible to release software for a wide range of operating systems and hardware architectures. The OBS reference server, which we use to build our distribution, currently has over 35.000 users that are building over 200.000 packages for 22 base distributions on 6 architectures. |

The battle for Open Access |
Universities around the world build institutional research repositories using open source software in an attempt to make available research and research findings that was funded by the taxpayer. International conglomerate publishers, copyright laws and other barriers hinder end-users from obtaining access to this information. What we need is the following: a way to expose the publishers for over charging on journal subscriptions (an academic kind of wikileaks), working around the loop-holes in copyright laws (finding ways to publish material in other formats), investing in open sources software that works for the purpose (65% of institutional repositories world wide run on DuraSpace but is just so-so), creating awareness about Open Access (we all want that information for free!), talking about the ethics of Open Access (why are we paying over and over for the same things?). |

Protecting your privacy with Free Software |
In the face of constantly changing communications, increasingly pervasive monitoring and corporate interests, it has become ever more difficult to protect our digital privacy.
